Repost from Rizzles Fanfic Challenge tumblr. Prompt: fireworks and/or umbrella. A first date oneshot.

Rizzoli she truly loves and needs. Now it's up to them to help correct this chemistry experiment gone wrong.

You're starting to ship your boss and her detective in a sorta strange all-encompassing, soul-shattering kind of way. It would help if they didn't make it so easy-and if they weren't being so secretive about the fact that they're very obviously getting it on.

My idea of a perfect ending to Season 4 of Rizzoli and Isles. Jane and Maura are at a turning point. Is there a chance they really are more than just best friends? My very first FanFiction story; my first story ever, actually. Please be kind- I'm nervous but trying to learn as I go. :) I do not claim any ownership of these characters.

It's amazing how much is said even in the absence of words. How is it that she's spent the past few days talking with Casey without coming to any resolution, yet a massage, a shared bottle of wine on the couch, and a night spent laying in bed together, all with minimum conversation between them, had silenced all her chaotic thoughts?

"Look, here's the thing. I'm not rich. Okay? I'll just say that right now. But Maura is. So she can buy anything she wants. I mean ANYTHING.

I am so screwed." Christmas fluff. Rizzles (of course)

"Jane?" Normally the doctor wouldn't bother trying to talk to her friend with the game on TV.

But something is different...

Based on the song "Burning Bridges" by OneRepublic. Jane's feelings for Maura interfered with everything in her life; her work, dreams and even the time she spent with the doctor.

Erotic and fluffy- It's a love story after all. *Chapter 4 up now!*

This is a one shot that has been playing around in my mind since the season three finale. It's about the kidney donation issue because face it…we all know it is going to happen. Maura is one to keep her word at whatever cost to her. This is the way I would like it to go. Always one for Rizzels. Enjoy!

I started this story after the season three finale…Let's just say other stories got in the way. I had to get this out before the season four premier…major spoiler alert from finale. My thoughts to the days end for S3E15.

"Ummmm Maur, about that kiss..."Jane started. Maura never opened her eyes and answered calmly without thought.

Maura and Jane read Calamity Jane. Eventual Rizzles. You need to have read CJ already to follow this story. This was originally published on Tumblr as short chapters, but is archived here as a long one-shot. 4/11/13 Note: I've edited out the original murder plot. It was dumb.

Jane never thought she could be so jealous of something covered head to toe in couture. The new barely 20-something summer lab intern working alongside Maura in the morgue was bubbly, cute as a button, and dressed to the nines everyday. Jane tried to be nice, but girls like this one needed to be put in their place.

Angela sets Jane and Maura up on a blind date with each other. What happens when they get there? Will they finally admit they have feelings for each other?

Reviews welcomed. Epilogue called *Spring Cleaning* is up so I can finally say this is *complete* but please note .. *Rating change to M*

three-shot. Set after 3x14, in a world where Maura is done taking all of Jane's ridiculous, cringe-worthy, ooc BS, and also hints at why anyone (but especially she) would be better for Jane than Casey I'm-wounded-so-you're-a-villain-if-you-dare-dislike-me Jones. Then Jane points out Maura hasn't exactly been stellar in the dating department lately, either. Complete.

Set after episode 3.10. Maura is trying to get back to normal. She meets a man that she seems to connect while Jane makes a new friend that she has a lot in common with. Jane and Maura seem to drift apart, but this might be just what they need to bring them together.

Sequel to "Just Give Me a Reason" Not necessary to read that to read this, but definitely give it a read if you like this. Jane and Maura are married, have twins, are still as kickass as ever. Picks up around 3x02. Seasons 1-2 covered in first Fic. Rated T generally, but some chapters are M. Thanks for reading!

What happens when Maura is asked to sit in on one of Jane's mandatory therapy session after the Paddy Doyle shooting. Do they work through their issues? or Do they just ignore what's happened in favor of having a drink and laughing on Maura's couch? Rated M for cursing and smut

One Shot (writer's block relief) It's apparently the end of days (not as morbid as it sounds, promise) and it's time for Jane and Maura to step over that line in the sand. Rated M for a reason, ladies and gents. Enjoy, and please review if you feel so inclined.

Jane's Valentine's Day plans get ruined and instead of the best day of her life, it's turning out to be the worst. But just when it seems all hope is lost, maybe things will finally start to turn around. One shot.

WWII era, circa 1945, our two leading ladies are loyal military wives with two different lives, lucky enough to cross paths. What will unfold and how will their lives be changed? Be warned: this is the slowest burn to Rizzles I've ever written. But I promise it will happen, and I hope that it'll be worth it. **Rating changed to M for chapter 23

What would it have been like for Maura to grow up with her own personal protector...in the form of her best friend Jane always by her side? It would have been total and complete bliss. Rizzles AU. Chapter 2 Up

"You know I'm not like you Jane. These feelings have been opened up, and I need to explore them, and I can only do that if you are with me. So, what do you say? Give me twenty four hours." One shot that developed from my other short story, Merchandise. This is complete!

Finally! A night off! Two weeks of non-stop work, issues, and family drama and all she wanted to do was sit here, drink a cold beer, enjoy a movie with her best friend and some QT. Smiling and sipping her drink she wondered, "could it get better?" She was about to find out.

Feeling like their friendship isn't as strong as it once was, Maura realizes she not only wants to close that distance but she wants even more. She devises a plan she thinks will bring her and Jane even closer together.

"She wasn't sure how much time had passed when a pair of black cigarette heels came into view, but there wasn't a hint of twilight left in the summer night. Jane let her eyes roam up familiar calves, curves and features" PWP, pre-established Rizzles.

Jane decided Maura should learn more about certain sports, or at least tries too. This is a look at the close friendship Maura and Jane share and a bond that crosses traditional roles in life, love, and friendship. Flirting, fun, and just overall life.

An AU set in the Old West. Why? Because I want to know how a proper, aspiring female doctor would react to a driven, hard-as-nails woman on the range. They don't know it yet, but Maura's fiancee just met his match.

It had been 96 six days since Maura had seen Jane, spoke to her, worked with her. Days without seeing the woman she thought she couldn't live without. And she was right- she was alive, but she wasn't living.

In which Maura's sexually-aggressive half-sister turns out to be the biggest Rizzles shipper of them all. Oneshot. Note: at this point, I'm pretending that everyone knows and is cool about the fact that Maura is Hope's daughter. Super AU.

Maura told Jane she loves her and that she doesn't want to risk their friendship. What Maura doesn't say is that she isn't referring to Tommy. If only Maura knew that Jane has been struggling with feelings too. FINAL CHAPTER POSTED.
